Trailers cannot be played in the app

[guyvdw001 0]

Hello,
I can't play trailers in the Windows application, even though they are visible via Firefox.(using the same personal server, both internally and externally).

When I connect from outside my network (via a private DNS, on another PC, at my workplace), I can then see the trailers in the Windows application.

This isn't a critical issue, but I don't understand why.

Best regards from Belgium.

Of interest: Aug 12 2026 info about Chrome browsers failing to playback Youtube videos.  This appears to match the issue above where Firefox plays correctly.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

Hello, thanks a lot for your answer.

In the browsers (Chrome or Firefox) the trailers are very good.

In the app only, the trailers are just ignored.

Strange, isn't it ?

I should mention that I have an Emby Premiere subscription.

are you using the latest version?

it was only fixed in newer versions this year.

softworkz is also working on a trailer update for a future release.
